Deep 5/10 NL: Bottom set under pressure - Page 2

I don't know if I'm good enough to make the fold or just weak but I folded. At the time I was thinking what MTBLue said...no 43 or 84 for this guy. Also if this was a draw I think he played it really weird...miniraise then reraise overthetop. It looked like an overset.

About a half hour later I asked him and he said he had 88 but who knows.

AZK...how do you look up set stats for a player so quickly? Is there a trick beyond finding the player in PT, looking at their starting hands, finding pairs then looking for sets THEN looking at HH's for those sets? Seems like a LONG time to me. (BTW..my PT stats for you are pretty sweet)

MTBLue...yeah we've traded punches quite a few times, eh? Actually I had you on my fish list early on for your overaggression.

I had a similar hand 2 days ago.
I have 22. Flop 742. EP bets pot, MP calls, I make a healthy raise, EP calls...and now MP reraises. I couldnt fold it and lost to 77.

Good fold.

Change my hand to 4 4. Easy push now? I'm just thinking about it now and I don't think I'd EVER be able to get rid of middle set. Anyone?

NO - 44 is a no brainer.

With middle set you have to push. IF if has a set, you are 50/50 whether you have the winner or not because hes just as likely to have bottom set as he is top set, and you already have a portion of your stack in so even if he told you he had a set, you cant fold.

Plus, he might be overplaying something else.
